History: (NFL SuperPro#2 (fb))- In
October of 1985 (which should be understood as six years before
the story), Karl Moore was a player in Notre Dame University,
along Phil Grayfield (who would one day be the NFL SuperPro).
Grayfield was a better player, but argued with him about his
improvisations. After the game, Grayfield was acclaimed, and left
with his friends, but Moore just sat and obsessed about
gameplays.

(NFL SuperPro#2)- Years later, Moore, now a
psycho ninja called Quick Kick, along with some thugs, beat two
men who worked for a community outreach program. One of the men
was Michael Frazier, wide receiver for the Miami Dolphins-- which
prompted the NFL SuperPro to investigate. The SuperPro
"muscles out" the information that the gang Frazier was
combating is "Los Tiburones" (The Sharks), a gang and
his partner, Ken, discovered the FBI was also investigating.
"Later, in the neighborhood dominated by Los Tiburones and
their gang violence..." Quick Kick was rampaging through Los
Tiburones, and finds out the arms shipment they stole is in a
small airport outside Hallandale.

"Hours later at the Schulmann
Airfield..." Quick Kick was trying to recover the arms for
his boss, Mr. Sanzionare. When he got the guns, SuperPro
confronted him (he discovered the Airport with former gang kids
at Michael Frazier's community center). Quick Kick recognized
SuperPro as his former team mate, and unmasked himself. The two
fought, and Quick Kick tried to escape in the small plane with
the cargo (which, SuperPro conjectured as being Havana-bound).
One of the wings was damaged, however, and the plane crashed in
the ocean, apparently killing Quick Kick.

NFL SuperPro. The fact that this issue is
readable -- and often enjoyable -- speaks volumes about Nicieza's
capabilities as a writer. He manages to play it straight and not
make us laugh at the characters. Still, NFL SuperPro... what was
Marvel thinking?
